Biologically active compounds that can be used as photosensitizers for diagnostic and therapeutic applications, particularly for PDT of cancer, infections and other hyperproliferative diseases, fluorescence diagnosis and PDT treatment of a non-tumorous indication such as arthritis, inflammatory diseases, viral or bacterial infections, dermatological, ophthalmological or urological disorders are provided as well as providing methods to obtain them in pharmaceutical quality. In addition, conjugates are provided in which these photosensitizers are attached to water-soluble polymers via cleavable linkers that can be cleaved in the body under specific conditions. Another embodiment consists of formulating the desired tetrapyrrole photosensitizer into a pharmaceutical formulation to be injected into the body avoiding undesirable effects like solubility problems or delayed pharmacokinetics of the tetrapyrrole systems.

A new polymer that is capable of forming a composite with titanium dioxide particles and latex particles when admixed therewith is provided. The new polymer includes a water soluble polymer backbone, a first functional group attached to the polymer backbone and having an affinity for latex, and a second functional group attached to the polymer backbone and capable of forming a bond with titanium dioxide. A polymer modified titanium dioxide pigment and a method of forming a pigmented paint formulation are also provided.

The invention relates to hydroxybenzophenone-based compounds of formula (I) that are used to improve UV, thermal, and thereto-oxidative stability of high performance aromatic polymers in a blend or as end-cappers of the same polymers.

The present disclosure provides a copolymer comprising monomer units represented by formulas (I) and/or (II) as disclosed and defined herein which are useful in antibacterial and/or antifouling coatings. The present disclosure further provides methods of synthesizing said copolymers.

A vinyl-compound-based resin composition containing a terminal vinyl compound (a) of a bifunctional phenylene ether oligomer having a polyphenylene ether structure, a naphthol aralkyl cyanate ester resin (b), a bisphenol A cyanate ester resin (c), a brominated flame retardant (d) and an inorganic filler (e). The resin composition is for use in a printed wiring board for high multilayer and high frequency, and is excellent in moldability, electric characteristics, peel strength, flame resistance and heat resistance after moisture absorption. Further, a prepreg comprising the above resin composition and a glass woven fabric, a metal-foil-clad laminate obtained by disposing a metal foil on one side or both sides of a stack of at least one prepreg and laminate-molding the resultant set, and a resin sheet obtained by applying a solution of the above resin composition to a surface of a metal foil or a film.
